Gryt-Chat is a self-hosted chat server for text chat, file transfer, voice & video calls and high resolution screen and system audio sharing. This new self-hosted application is a free alternative to Discord.
And open source.
there’s a .cursor directory in there with a rule specifically telling it to not mark generated code as generated. I can’t see how that could ever cause any issues /s
It really looks like every programmer wannabe is trying to bumrush a Discord codeslop for free internet fame points these days!
Btw is it ai slop if I use AI to help me through if I do reviewing and googling and fact checking because I don’t trust it? It is really good as a general knowledge source in my opinion
If you don’t trust it, why use it? It’s still slop in the end, just somewhat less slopified.
Consider: either you are smarter than the tool you use, in which case it doesn’t really offer anything much, or you are dumber than the tool you use, in which case you wouldn’t be qualified to judge its results anyway.
So what do we call these? Cordslop?
Bringing back a meme from the very early '00s (if not earlier), I’d say something like “Cloning Discord is my passion”.
yeah agreed. I’m fully in support of an open source discord alternative, it’s sorely needed, but expecting to vibe code real time communication tells me exactly which programmers have worked with real time systems before. RTC is not something you vibe code successfully haha.
Damn, the Lutris rule is spreading quickly.
Me opens link expecting vibe-coded slop… and indeed it seems to be vibe-coded slop 🤷
ai;dr
I think it’d be better if we stuck with Movim instead, which is already built on a proven scalable and most importantly federated back-end (XMPP), and also already offers text, group audio and video calls, screensharing w/ audio (have to use chromium based browser for now to stream the audio), and even some pretty decent encryption.
It’s our most promising Discord alternative out of many.
XMPP gang rise up! There are dozens of us!
How the hell are you supposed to pronounce this?
“Great”?
“Greet”??
“Grit”???
“Grite”???
“Jonathan”
I am Groot.
I’m going to start running these slopware projects through my own AI and open 6000 PRs for “fixes”.
I don’t know if requiring an S3 bucket really fits the self-hosting ethos
